Attack of the Thong
Injured By a Thong, Woman Sues Victoria's Secret
JUNE 17--As she was attempting to put on a
Victoria's Secret thong, a Los Angeles woman claims that a decorative
metallic piece flew off the garment and struck her in the eye, causing
injuries and a new product liability lawsuit against the underwear giant.
Macrida Patterson, 52, alleges that she was hurt last May by a defective
"low-rise v-string" from the Victoria's Secret "Sexy Little Thing" line,
according to a lawsuit filed last week in Los Angeles Superior Court. A
copy of her June 9 complaint, which does not specify monetary damages,
can be found below. Patterson's lawyer, Jason Buccat, told TSG that a
"design problem" caused the decorative piece to come loose and strike
Patterson in the eye, causing damage to her cornea. He added that the eye
injury, which caused Patterson to miss a few days of work, will be
"affecting her the rest of her life." Patterson is a traffic officer with L.A.'s
Department of Transportation. Prior to the lawsuit's filing, Victoria's
Secret officials asked to examine the garment and the decorative piece,
but that request was rejected by Patterson's counsel. For those unfamiliar
with "v-strings," the undergarment is the Victoria's Secret variant on the
"g-string," which has long been favored in the battle against visible panty
lines.

no that's right.
I know a guy who "accidentally" spilled liquid soap at zellers. He then left the store and came back about an hour later to find the soap still there, slipped on it, and got a $20,000 settlement.
